Feelings

Questions unanswered.

"Your scar seems to be fading." Armin offered.

"No Armin, I'm not sure you understand." Mikasa shook her head. "Its not the scars here..." She pointed to her cheek and neck. "Its the ones here." She pointed to her heart.

Armin sighed and shrugged his shoulders in consent. He moved uncomfortably on the side of Mikasa's bed that he was on.

"I've already checked with Eren. He doesn't seem to remember a thing about what happened between you two."

"Well its not like I believe him, Armin. I still wonder if he even recognized me, or thought I was just another annoyance he had to deal with." 

Again, Armin shrugged. It wasn't like Eren to keep his feelings and memories to himself. 

"Hey, have you told him how you feel about him yet?" Armin asked innocently.

It was Mikasa's turn to shrug. She had hidden her feelings from Eren for a long time. It wasn't unlike her to be stoic and emotionless towards Eren. She told Armin about her feelings toward Eren, how she didn't imagine him as a brother more than she imagined them being together, how every night before they went to bed she wished she had the warmth of Eren's sleeping body next to her, comforting her from the outside world. Armin comforted her by saying "... he isn't your real brother anyway, so even having kids with him would be fine." 

"I just- " She began.

"Haven't had the time?" Armin finished for her. "There is time right now. I bet in no time, Erwin will rush in here and demand you to speak to him in the medical bay!"

"Armin..." Mikasa said. "How will I know if he feels the same way?"

Armin's answer was interrupted by the sound of footsteps outside the door and a swift knocking. Armin got up and answered the door. 

"Hello Armin, is Mikasa well?" A familiar voice hummed.

"Yes, sir. Better than we had hoped."

"Good. I would like her to come down to the medical bay. Eren hasn't woken in a day, and we need to see if he is still battle ready."

"Yes sir! Right away sir!"

Armins response was followed by the footsteps retreating down the hall way. Armin shifted his wieght and walked back to where Mikasa sat, pondering what to say to Eren to convince him of her feelings. 

"Speak of the devil," Armin said "Erwin wants you down at the med bay. I think he thinks something is off with Eren."

Mikasa rose and stretched. Now was the time to tell Eren what she reallt felt.
